AccordionLayoutContainer scrolling problem (IE only)

I have some ContentPanels inside an AccordionLayoutContainer. When the text in one of the ContentPanels is long enough to need a horizontal scrollbar, if I move the mouse over the text it causes the ContentPanel to grow continuously to the bottom of the page, pushing anything below it off the page. This happens in IE, but not in Firefox.

Thanks for reporting this bug. We've been over the original Ext JS bug report, but as GXT and Ext JS don't share any code, I'm not sure what to take away from it. We've tried to build a few test cases to reproduce this both from your description and from the linked thread, but so far have been unable to cause the bug.

I've tried modifying the sample AccordianLayoutExample.java and noticed it produced a scroll and tried IE7,8 & 9 but didn't see any growth on mouse hover.

I've been trying to replicate the steps, but I have a feeling I'm missing a step or two to produce what was going on. Do you think you could provide more precise snippet of source to produce the issue? Or can you reproduce this in the sample above?

I tried your example and could not reproduce the issue - I think if HTML is added to the ContentPanel it is not a problem. In my code I have a Tree added to the ContentPanel, and that is where I see the issue. I modified your example to use a Tree instead of HTML and was able to reproduce. Can you try this? I also do not have a height set on the ContentPanel (with a height set there doesn't seem to be a problem).

rondestvedt, can you share the test sample you've used to reproduce it? In addition to the sample above, we tried the example at http://www.sencha.com/examples/#Exam...ccordionlayout but gave each item much longer text to try to get the issue. From Brandon's reply:

Can you clarify on what you have in your project that makes it different from this? Can you also try starting with the example mentioned with those tweaks, and confirm that it does or does not happen?

If you can reproduce it with that sample, then our testing must be off, and you can clarify for us. If you *cannot* reproduce it, then it isn't just the Tree+Accordion that causes it, and either you can make the example more closely fit your case, or you can share your own case so that we can see this in action.

I was able to reproduce in AccordionLayoutExample.java. The only change needed, in addition to your previous snippet to force the scrollbar, was to set the ExpandMode on the AccordionLayoutContainer to ExpandMode.MULTI. As soon as I hover over an item in the tree, the rest of the Content Panels below move out of view. Collapsing and re-expanding "Online Users" fixes the issue until hovering over again.
